Subject: Leaning into the new year

Some say the 1960s didn’t really begin until the Beatles played on Ed Sullivan on February 9, 1964. For some of us, 2021 is feeling like an extension of 2020, and we’re ready for a fresh start.

That might be affecting your motivation in the new year. But sometimes all it takes to get going is a little inspiration. When I’m feeling stuck I often look to a book or a newsletter for ideas and a little spark, but those might not help if you’re working on a 2021 strategic plan for your business. If you came here for business inspiration, we have some articles that can help.
